The surname Nevill, also spelled Neville, has a rich history rooted in Ireland. The name can be traced back to the Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century. The first recorded bearer of the name was Richard de Neuville, who arrived in Ireland with Strongbow, the Norman conqueror. Richard and his descendants settled in County Wexford and became prominent landowners.
Over time, the Nevills spread throughout Ireland and established themselves in various regions. They held positions of power and influence, particularly in County Cork and County Limerick. The family also intermarried with other prominent Irish families, cementing their status and connections.
During the Tudor era, the Nevills remained influential, with notable members such as Sir Henry Nevill, who served as the Vice-President of Munster. However, with the arrival of Oliver Cromwell and the subsequent English Protestant ascendancy, the family's influence began to decline.
Despite this decline, many Nevills continued to play significant roles in Irish society. Some prominent Nevills migrated to other parts of the world, such as the United States and Australia, where they contributed to the shaping of new communities.
Today, the surname Nevill or Neville carries with it a proud Irish heritage, representing a connection to the Norman invaders and the subsequent development of Ireland.
